I've been incorporating reverse perspective optical illusion techniques into my artwork for over a decade. The three-dimensional art pieces are constructed with wooden panels that extend outward from the frame. The wood is cut into pyramidal or triangular shapes on the upper and lower surfaces of the artwork. The superficial surfaces of the art are composed of trapezoidal or triangular-shaped pieces of wood. The pieces are assembled to create a geometrically shaped “box”.
The surfaces of the wooden box are primed and are painted using a “reverse perspective” technique in which objects that appear to be farthest away from the viewer are actually on wooden surfaces that are closest to the viewer. Similarly, objects that appear to be closest to the viewer are recessed into the artwork, furthest away from the viewer. This “reverse perspective” provides dynamic optical illusions that appear to move as the viewer's perspective changes in relationship to the artwork.
These dynamic optical illusions are best viewed in person or on video on my YouTube page. https://www.youtube.com/@CurtisDickmanFineArt
